I just finished reading Imaginary Jesus by Matt Mikalatos. I should warn other recovering pharisees like myself that a reader of this excellent first novel might be offended by the lack of “religious correctness” in the story. I know that one important result of this reading is that I am now required to visit Portland, Oregon where the book is set.
This novel is part of the BarnaBooks line from Tyndale. Barna did research that Matt used in this work. A humorous and irreverent novel that features a talking donkey and “Testosterone Jesus” as important characters has got to be work a read, don’t you think? You can see the author himself in the video below:
